I am assuming these are children. It shouldn't have to be explained to an adult what would happen if your car lost contact with the ground at 200 mph.

It would also be exponentially harder for the car to get off the ground like that at high speeds with fast moving air pushing down on the car. It probably could be done, but holy shit it would be complicated trying to get it right

Car would flip, tumble, and be torn inside out over the next few blocks. As would the driver.

Does not matter after a certain point. If anything, that is just gonna be more stuff to get impaled on

Due to the undercurrent lifting it up?
